This video shows U.S. soldiers training with German army instructors. What we’re most interested in, however, occurs in the first 40 seconds of the video.

As a U.S. soldier fires his rifle during training, pay close attention to the German army instructor. Notice anything odd? Watch what he does with the shell casings as they eject. He catches them with his bare hands and tosses them aside like it’s nothing. In case you don’t know, those little things are hot!

The rest of the video is cool to watch, but that’s tough to beat. It would be one thing if he at least had a pair of gloves on, but catching hot brass barehanded. . . talk about pain tolerance.
